Current report
On April 11, 2025, we completed a transaction to sell a portion of our infrastructure services entities, including our distribution, transmission and substation operations for aggregate proceeds of $108.7 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. The Company believes this transaction will be accretive for its stockholders. Mammoth entered the infrastructure sector in 2017 with two small acquisitions and has grown and added to it through organic development to generate more than $90 million of revenue annually in each of the last three years. We believe this transaction unlocks significant value for the Mammoth enterprise and with the increased cash position, we are actively exploring opportunities to deploy capital at accretive returns.
Current report
The natural sand proppant industry is closely aligned with the oil and gas industry. Similar to our well completion segment, activity for our natural sand proppant services segment remained suppressed throughout 2024. We expect 2025 activity to be relatively steady, with the potential for upside compared to 2024 driven by incremental demand associated with natural gas.
Current report
Since we commenced infrastructure services operations, a substantial portion of our infrastructure revenue has been generated from storm restoration work, primarily from PREPA. Cobra and PREPA previously entered into two agreements to aid in the restoration and reconstruction of Puerto Rico’s power grid in response to damage caused by Hurricane Maria in 2017. Our work under each of the contracts with PREPA ended on March 31, 2019. PREPA is currently subject to bankruptcy proceedings, which were filed in July 2017 and are currently pending in the United States District Court for the District of Puerto Rico (the “Title III Court”). Cobra pursued litigation in the Title III Court and other dispute resolution efforts seeking recovery of the amounts owed to Cobra by PREPA for restoration services in Puerto Rico, which proceedings are discussed in more detail in the Company’s prior reports filed with the SEC. On July 22, 2024, Cobra entered into the Settlement Agreement with PREPA. Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, PREPA paid Cobra approximately $168.4 million in 2024 and, as of March 31, 2025, PREPA owes Cobra $20.0 million, which is payable to Cobra within seven days following the effective date of PREPA’s plan of adjustment in its bankruptcy proceedings. Refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, previously filed with the SEC for more information regarding the Settlement Agreement.

First Quarter 2025 Financial Overview
Current report
•Revenue for the first quarter of 2025 increased by $19.3 million, or 45%, to $62.5 million from $43.2 million for the first quarter of 2024. The increase in total revenue is primarily attributable to an increase in well completion services, infrastructure services and natural sand proppant services revenue.
Current report
Revenue. Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased $19.3 million, or 45%, to $62.5 million from $43.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in total revenue is primarily attributable to increases in revenue for our well completion, infrastructure and natural sand proppant services segments during the three months ended March 31, 2025. Revenue by segment was as follows:
Current report
Infrastructure Services. Infrastructure services cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, increased $3.8 million, or 18%, to $25.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from $21.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization of $0.9 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, was 83% and 86% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to an increase in storm restoration work, which produces higher margins.
Current report
Natural Sand Proppant Services. Natural sand proppant services cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation, depletion and accretion, decreased $0.2 million, or 4%, to $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation, depletion and accretion of $0.9 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, was 82% and 133% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to an increase in tons of sand sold and the recognition of shortfall revenue, which was partially offset by a decline in the average price per ton of sand sold.
Current report
Other. Other cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, decreased $1.0 million, or 15%, to $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily due to decreased activity. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization of $1.2 million and $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, was 93% and 94% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Current report
Interest Income (Expense and Financing Charges), Net. Interest income, net of interest expense and financing charges was $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to interest expense and financing charges, net of $8.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The change is primarily due to a $5.5 million financing charge incurred in relation to the Assignment Agreement with SPCP Group during the three months ended March 31, 2024. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Cobra Assignment Agreement” for additional information. Additionally, interest expense on long-term debt decreased by $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily due to the payoff of our term credit facility in October 2024.

We continue to focus on growing our industrial business. We offer infrastructure engineering services focused on the transmission and distribution industry and also have equipment manufacturing operations and offer fiber optic services. Our equipment manufacturing operations provide us with the ability to repair much of our existing equipment in-house, as well as the option to manufacture certain new equipment we may need in the future. Our fiber optic services include the installation of both aerial and buried fiber. We are continuing to explore other opportunities to expand our industrial business lines.
Previous report
U.S. onshore activity and sustained weakness in the natural gas basins in which we operate. However, we recently activated one pressure pumping fleet and expect to activate a second pressure pumping fleet in the coming weeks. We believe activity will remain flat throughout the first half of 2025 and expect to see a ramp in activity in the second half of 2025 as several macroeconomic tailwinds are expected to materialize and support incremental natural gas production. We will be strategically positioned to capitalize on this anticipated demand if and when it ramps up.
Previous report
As discussed above, pricing for crude oil and natural gas declined from levels seen in 2022, which slowed down completion activities and adversely impacted demand for our sand proppant services in the second half of 2023. Although we experienced increased demand for our natural sand proppant services and more favorable pricing during the first nine months ended September 30, 2024 relative to the fourth quarter of 2023, activity has remained suppressed. We expect that this trend will continue into the fourth quarter of 2024.
Previous report
Our average crew count declined slightly from approximately 83 crews throughout 2023 to approximately 77 crews during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. With the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act funds being released for infrastructure projects, we remain encouraged about the potential for growth in this sector. We are currently seeing an uptick in bidding opportunities related to engineering, fiber, and transmission and distribution, all of which are areas we believe we have differentiated and specialized capabilities. We continue to focus on operational execution and pursue opportunities within this sector as we strategically structure our service offerings for growth, intending to increase our infrastructure services activity and expand both our geographic footprint and depth of projects, especially in fiber maintenance and installation projects.
Previous report
We work for multiple utilities primarily across the northeastern, southwestern, midwestern and western portions of the United States. We believe that we are well-positioned to compete for new projects due to the experience of our infrastructure management team, combined with our vertically integrated service offerings. We are seeking to leverage this experience and our service offerings to grow our customer base and increase our revenues in the continental United States over the coming years.

As discussed elsewhere in this report, on July 22, 2024, Cobra entered into a release and settlement agreement with PREPA and the FOMB, in its capacity as Title III representative for PREPA, to settle all outstanding matters between Cobra and PREPA (the “Settlement Agreement”).
Previous report
Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, Cobra was allowed an administrative expense claim against PREPA of $170.0 million, plus the $18.4 million in the Withheld FEMA Funds that PREPA was holding and considered payable to Cobra but for purported garnishments in this amount asserted by three Puerto Rican municipalities (the “Specified Municipalities”) for certain municipal tax claims discussed elsewhere in this report and for which Cobra disputes any valid garnishment. Cobra’s allowed claim is payable through three installments: (i) $150.0 million on the later of (A) ten business days following approval of the Settlement Agreement by the Title III Court and (B) August 31, 2024; (ii) $20.0 million within seven days following the effective date of PREPA’s plan of adjustment; and (iii) $18.4 million in the Withheld FEMA Funds within either (A) ten business days after the deadline for appealing the entry of the settlement order by the Title III Court under the applicable bankruptcy rules of procedure if no such appeal is filed, or (B) if the provisions of the settlement order allowing PREPA to release the Withheld FEMA Funds to Cobra without retaining any liability to the Specified Municipalities are appealed by the Specified Municipalities, within ten business days of the filing of the notice of such appeal. As a result of the Settlement Agreement, we recorded a non-cash, pre-tax charge of approximately $170.7 million in the second quarter of 2024 to reduce our accounts receivable balance from PREPA of $359.1 million, representing the amount owed to Cobra by PREPA in relation to these agreements as of June 30, 2024, including the accrued but unpaid interest, prior to the Settlement Agreement, to the amount expected to be received from the Settlement Agreement. On September 18, 2024, the Settlement Agreement was approved by the Title III Court overruling all objections thereto and an order was entered the same day (the “Settlement Order”). On October 1, 2024, Cobra received the first installment payment of $150.0 million from the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico in connection with the Settlement Agreement with PREPA. Also on October 1, 2024, certain Puerto Rico municipalities and Foreman Electric Services Inc. that had objected to approval of the Settlement Order each filed timely notices of appeal of the Settlement Order to the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. None of the foregoing parties have sought a stay of the Settlement Order pending such appeals. Although the ultimate outcome of these appeals cannot be predicted with certainty, Cobra believes that the appeals are without merit. On October 18, 2024, Cobra received a payment from PREPA totaling $18.4 million under the terms of the Settlement Agreement. In connection with the receipt of the $18.4 million from PREPA, Cobra instructed Fifth Third Bank to issue a letter of credit to PREPA under the Reimbursement Agreement in the amount of $18.4 million and transferred a total of…

We used a portion of the proceeds received from the first installment payment to pay, in full, all amounts owed under our term credit facility, including accrued and unpaid interest, and terminated the facility. The remaining settlement proceeds will be cash on our balance sheet to be used to invest back into our business and for general corporate purposes.

•Revenue for the third quarter of 2024 decreased by $25.0 million, or 38%, to $40.0 million from $65.0 million for the third quarter of 2023. The decrease in total revenue is primarily attributable to a decline in well completions services and natural sand proppant services revenue.
Previous report
Revenue. Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 decreased $25.0 million, or 38%, to $40.0 million from $65.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in total revenue is primarily attributable to a decrease in utilization in our well completions services division as well as a decline in tons sold in our natural sand proppant services division during the three months ended September 30, 2024. Revenue by operating division was as follows:
Previous report
Well Completion Services. Well completion services division revenue decreased $18.1 million, or 89%, to $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 from $20.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in our well completion services revenue was primarily driven by a decrease in pressure pumping services utilization due to the continued softness in the natural gas basins in which we operate. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we had one pump down fleet active and no pressure pumping fleets active, as compared to an average utilization of 1.2 pressure pumping fleets during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Drilling services division revenue decreased $0.7 million, or 30%, to $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease is primarily due to decreased utilization for our directional drilling business from 37% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 to 28% for the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Previous report
Infrastructure Services. Infrastructure services division cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization expense, increased $0.4 million, or 2%, to $22.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 from $22.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization expense of $0.6 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, was 87% and 83% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to a decrease in storm restoration work.
Previous report
Natural Sand Proppant Services. Natural sand proppant services division cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation, depletion and accretion expense, decreased $3.9 million to $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 from $7.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation, depletion and accretion expense of $1.7 million and $2.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, was 63% and 66% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to declines in freight charges and repairs and maintenance expense.
Previous report

As a percentage of revenue, our drilling services division cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization expense of $0.6 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, was 94% and 96% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to a decline in equipment rental expense.
Previous report
Other Services. Other services division cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization expense, increased $0.5 million, or 10%, to $5.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 from $4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 primarily due to increased activity. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization expense of $0.7 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, was 76% and 80% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to an increase in utilization for our rental equipment and remote accommodations businesses resulting in a lower ratio of fixed costs to variable costs.
Previous report
Impairment of Goodwill. As a result of the sale of ARS, we performed an impairment assessment of our goodwill as of September 30, 2023. We determined that the carrying value of goodwill for our Aviation reporting unit exceeded the fair value at September 30, 2023, resulting in impairment expense of $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Previous report
Interest Expense and financing charges, Net. Interest expense and financing charges, net increased $6.8 million, or 234%, to $9.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 from $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase is primarily due to a $7.1 million charge incurred in relation to our sale leaseback agreements. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Sale Leaseback Transactions” for additional information. The increase was slightly offset by a decline in average borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility.

Demand for most of our oil and natural gas products and services depends substantially on the level of expenditures by companies in the oil and natural gas industry. The levels of capital expenditures of our customers are driven by many factors, including the prices of oil and natural gas. Throughout 2023, pricing for crude oil and natural gas declined from levels seen in 2022, which slowed down completion activities for our customers, in particular, in the Utica and Marcellus Shale natural gas plays, and, as a result, reduced demand for our well completion services. Throughout the first three quarters of 2024, we continued to experience persistent challenges in our well completion business and other oilfield services associated with lower
Current wording
Demand for most of our oil and natural gas products and services depends substantially on the level of expenditures by companies in the oil and natural gas industry. The levels of capital expenditures of our customers are driven by many factors, including the prices of oil and natural gas. Throughout 2024, we continued to experience persistent challenges in our well completion and natural sand proppant services segments associated with lower U.S. onshore activity and sustained weakness in the natural gas basins in which we operate. Macroeconomic uncertainty, tariff implications and OPEC+ production increases have placed significant pressure on the energy market, and more specifically, commodity prices. This has widely softened expectations for activity levels throughout 2025. We expect 2025 completions activity to be relatively steady, with the potential for upside compared to 2024 driven by incremental demand associated with natural gas. Positive trends that may contribute to increased activity will come from LNG export capacity coming online and general electricity and power demand enhancements. We will be strategically positioned to capitalize on this anticipated demand if and when it ramps up.

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net (loss) income before depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion, gains (losses) on disposal of assets, impairment of goodwill, stock based compensation, interest expense and financing charges, net, other income (expense), net (which is comprised of interest on trade accounts receivable and certain legal expenses) and provision for income taxes, further adjusted to add back interest on trade accounts receivable. We exclude the items listed above from net (loss) income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industries depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net loss or cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA. Our computations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a widely followed measure of operating performance and may also be used by investors to measure our ability to meet debt service requirements.
